Apart from having a qualitative description of quantities such as momentum, work and energy, why are these quantities considered so fundamental? What is the reason to define them in the first place? We could define other quantities but why these specifically? They help us solve the equations of m...
When we measure position for example, how does the system "know" that we're measuring position in order to collapse to a position eigenvector? Does the wave function always evolve from the state that it collapsed to? For example, if we measure the position (whatever that means) does the wave evol...
